It's infected now.

[Somethingswrong]

The hole where my tooth was is now infected and slowly all day I've been feeling it getting worse. First when I took out the gauze it stank really bad, then my mouth started to taste bad, and now it's hurting a bit. Idk what I did or if it was the stress of the election and who won. I can't use salt water to help it bc she said it might take the blood clot out and to not put anything on it for that reason. I'm stuck in pain with a disgusting taste in my mouth. At least the ibuprofen is helping.

Make sure to keep taking ibuprofen every few hours, if that's indicated for your pain. If it gets worse or if it doesn't get better soon, check out a doctor. I'm also struggling with a teeth issue atm, so I definitely feel that. Hugs!
